In order to better understand the mechanical properties of graded crushed rocks(GCRs)and to optimize the relevant design,a numerical test method based on the particle flow modeling technique PFC2Dis developed for the California bearing ratio(CBR)test on GCRs.The effects of different testing conditions and micro-mechanical parameters used in the model on the CBR numerical results have been systematically studied.The reliability of the numerical technique is verified.The numerical results suggest that the influences of the loading rate and Poisson’s ratio on the CBR numerical test results are not significant.As such,a loading rate of 1.0e3.0 mm/min,a piston diameter of 5 cm,a specimen height of15 cm and a specimen diameter of 15 cm are adopted for the CBR numerical test.The numerical results reveal that the CBR values increase with the friction coefficient at the contact and shear modulus of the rocks,while the influence of Poisson’s ratio on the CBR values is insignificant.The close agreement between the CBR numerical results and experimental results suggests that the numerical simulation of the CBR values is promising to help assess the mechanical properties of GCRs and to optimize the grading design.Besides,the numerical study can provide useful insights on the mesoscopic mechanism.
